The Chief Health Professions Officer at the Scottish Government is currently working with Learning Directorate colleagues to support a partnership approach to enhancing access to therapy services for children and young people.

The guidance can be used as a self-evaluative tool on partnership working between education and allied health practitioners to improve outcomes for young people. It sets out the key features of positive practice in jointly delivering services.
